- Photos NOT OK to edit
I often see Speedlite associated with studio (portrait?) type photography - at least in reviews of the product I do.
I typically take pictures of my daughter running around, or pictures of family gatherings. Basically lots of indoor stuff where I'm at mercy of indoor lighting, or lack of ... Recently I started using 17-40 f/4L and am finding it a little more difficult (I often get pictures that are "dark) - this is compared to the 50mm f/1.8 which I think is one of the best lense for price.
Will Speedlite 580 EX II help? I'm not going to master/slave it so am not concerned that you can't turn off slave from "this master". Or is this going to be overkill?
Also, is there an EX III in the works? Am thinking Canon should have a new model out to correct that master/slave issue, then I can get the EX II for cheaper
